firestarter does both - internally routes the internet from one port to another and acts as a firewall. I think the only settings it has are to allow all connections from the laptop ip, and allow all network users access via samba and the media server i have setup. | |

Oh, and i'm using firestarter on ubuntu to deal with ip forwarding so i think that aspect should be covered. | |

ok. Thats going to give me a few things to try tonight - server is at home but i'm at work. As i say, i tried it with the gateway set to the routers ip rather than the server so that is probably what i did wrong. | |

Go to a command prompt and do an IPCONFIG /ALL on your laptop (if its windows) and see what you've got as your DNS server. | |

All the computers can ping/connect to each other just fine except when trying to access the internet. The laptop just says can't resolve host when i try to access a site . I tried to get it to work by giving the laptop a static ip with the default gateway as the router - maybe thats what i was doing wrong. | |

How are you trying to access the server, by IP or DNS name. | |

Try to set the default gateway on the laptop to the server IP address | |

Forgot to say, the laptop and server are able to communicate to share files and I also have a media server up and running on it which the PS3 can connect to no problem. | |
